“For young people, it’s often said that we’re always on our phones, and we’re not aware of our surroundings, and we’re not aware of what’s going on in the world. It’s the complete opposite.” Nico Parker

When asked was the possibility of doing a music album in her future? The Black-ish star told Teen Vogue that:

“I wouldn’t do a whole pop album,” she says. “But I would do a musical.”

Parker is definitely learning about the rollercoaster ride of fame, but has her mom, not as acting coach but “mama bear” by her side.

“[My mom] is very ‘mama bear’ over me,” she says. “Just the fact that she’s been through things herself, it also teaches me what situations I can avoid, or what situations that I can stay in.”

Both girls believe in having a voice and speaking up for themselves in this industry and beyond.

“When I was younger, in my friend group, I was quieter. I wouldn’t really step on anyone’s toes. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned that if I think I’m right, or if I know my opinion, I’m not afraid to stand up for what I believe in.” Nico Parker
